About this home
An extraordinary Merced property hidden in the heart of Merced offers a rare opportunity to own one of the area’s most distinctive hideaway with iconic architectural presence. Originally built in 1952 and artfully redesigned using repurposed treasures from throughout California, this one-of-a-kind residence tells a story of craftsmanship, creativity, and timeless character. Offering 2,609 sq ft with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, spacious living areas, and a generous 15,762 sq ft lot, the home was designed to capture beauty from both inside and out. Breathtaking creekside views from inside and out, privacy, and architectural presence create a setting that feels truly unforgettable. The vacant creekside yard area adds remarkable potential, with another stairway leading toward Bear Creek and open space ideal for entertaining, outdoor living, gardens, quiet reflection, or future vision, a true zen space. This is more than a property. It is a legacy opportunity with endless possibilities for the next owner to continue the story and make it their own private retreat.
Downtown Merced, located between Bear Creek and Yosemite Avenue, is a historic and civic Merced neighborhood with a walkable street grid and early-20th-century storefronts. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street and 16th Street, where murals, coffee counters, small galleries, and late-night bites cluster under classic marquees. The Merced Theatre anchors the arts calendar, while the Merced County Courthouse Museum adds a stately, timeworn counterpoint. The Multicultural Arts Center keeps the creative scene visible in a compact footprint. Brick facades, neon signage, and pocket plazas shape an urban rhythm that shifts from daytime errands to evening shows.
